I enjoyed the article on the time-scarcity demon the most last month. I did feel slightly overwhelmed and it gave me a new perspective which calmed me down immediately.

If you think I did a good job in selecting the content, please share this with everyone you will ever meet in the next few years. And message all of your sweethearts you ever had starting from Kindergarten as well: spring is coming, hormones are working overtime and it might be good for something!
